Nickel is not generally reactive to common temperatures and environments. In industry it is commonly used to electroplate steel surfaces to protect them from rust. It takes a strong acid to dissolve it and even then the reaction is very slow.

∙ 7y agoNearly all nickel found in nature is not radioactive. Trace amounts of radioactive nickel-59 and be found, but they are not significant. Like all elements, radioactive synthetic isotopes of nickel exist.

∙ 13y agoNickel is a metal, so it will generally give up electrons to a nonmetal anion or a polyatomic anion (negative ion made of more than one atom) to form an ionic compound. For example, NiCl2, or NiSO4.

∙ 8y agoNo, it is inert.

Is nickel or Xenon more reactive?
Nickel is more reactive.
What would be most reactive to least reactive nickel xenon and lithium?
lithium is a violently reactive metalnickel is a fairly nonreactive metalxenon is an inert gas
Where is the element nickel most commonly found?
Nickel is reactive enough with oxygen that native nickel is rare on Earth's surface, being mostly confined to the interiors of larger nickel-iron meteorites that were protected from oxidation during their time in space.
Where can platinum jewelry be bought?
Platinum jewelry can be bought in most jewelry shops and is a very good but slightly more expensive alternative to nickel jewelry. Most people prefer platinum jewelry over nickel jewelry because nickel jewelry is very reactive and can cause allergic reactions.
Is boron reactive or non reactive?
reactive
Is nickel or Xenon more reactive?
Nickel is more reactive.
Is magnesium more reactive than nickel?
No chromium is more reactive than chromium because it it located farther right on the periodic table than nickel. No chromium is more reactive than nickel because it it located farther right on the periodic table than nickel. No chromium is more reactive than nickel because it it located farther right on the periodic table than nickel. No chromium is more reactive than nickel because it it located farther right on the periodic table than nickel.
Is nickel more reactive than tin?
no
What would be most reactive to least reactive nickel xenon and lithium?
lithium is a violently reactive metalnickel is a fairly nonreactive metalxenon is an inert gas
Which element is the most reactive out of nickel chlorine helium and iron?
The reactivity of an element increases towards the top and right of the periodic table (until the column of noble gases is reached). Chlorine's outer shell contains 7 electrons that make it very reactive. Helium is a noble gas and is non reactive. Elements found in the middle of the table, like nickel and iron, are reactive, but less reactive than chlorine
What metals are fairly reactive and found as ores?
potassium, nickel, carbon
Is a nickel reactive?
Nickel is not generally reactive to common temperatures and environments. In industry it is commonly used to electroplate steel surfaces to protect them from rust. It takes a strong acid to dissolve it and even then the reaction is very slow.
Is neon and nickel has similar properties?
No. Neon is a noble gas in group 18 and is chemically inert. Nickel is a metal in group 10 and is reactive.
Place these elements in order from leat reactive yovmost reactive neckel xenon lithium how did you determine the order?
In order from least reactive to most, the order is xenon, nickel, then lithium. I determined this based in the theory that non-metals are less reactive.
Where is the element nickel most commonly found?
Nickel is reactive enough with oxygen that native nickel is rare on Earth's surface, being mostly confined to the interiors of larger nickel-iron meteorites that were protected from oxidation during their time in space.
What metal is more reactive than lead but less reactive than zinc?
In between these two, there are nickel, tin lead and hydrogen.They all are more reactive than copper but less reactive than iron.For your convenience, here is the reactive series of elements in order of decreasing reactivity:-Potassiumsodiumbariumcalciummagnesiumaluminiummanganesezincironnickeltinleadhydrogencoppermercurysilvergoldplatinum
Which is more reactive zinc or nickel?
Iron is more reactive than copper because it is higher up on the activity series. There is more reasons to back this up such as outer electrons more tightly bound than others. Those who have less tightly bound electrons are more reactive. Hope this helps you.
